Since that more information has come to hand which Prince Rupert people should know about, especially in view of the fact that it was thought the rayon situation might affect a proposed' local industry. Prior to the recent arrangement with Japan, the local rayon product was protected against Japan to the extent of 176'r and when the present government reduced this to 148rf there was a strong protest from the Dominion Textile Company and as a protest the Sherbrooke plant was closed for five days.. Yet in the years 1930-1934 the company distributed dividends to its shareholders amounting to $7,091,000; As a result of the cutting down on importations f r;om Japan, that country cut in half its purchases of wheat from Canada bringing it down to four million bushels from eight million. This means that so many Canadian farmers are- robbed of a' market for their wheat. It also means that British Columbia is robbed of its market for its timber products, the total being much greater than the advantage to the country from the operation at a very low wage rate of the- Sherbrooke plant. If British Columbia is to sell her forest products and the prairie farmers their wheat to Japan, Canada must buy a certain amount of Japanese goods. What has been happening was that the west has been robbed of a large part of its market in order that the east might benefit, the benefit to Canada from a high tariff being less than the advantage from a lower tariff with greater foreign trade. Naturally Prince Rupert, as a port with great possibilities, is interested in trade with the Orient. We may not get much of it but as long as it is going on there is a chance that we may be able to get at least a little.- If there is no trade, if is sure we can never become a port. Evidently there is a sufficient protection on ravon to insure its continuous operation in this country as long as there is money among the people to buy the product. If the ravon manufacturers cannot operate with a protection of 148' . it should go out of business.
